Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2021239813A1] The invention relates to a process for the preparation of a solid allulose material comprising crystalline allulose, the method comprising the steps of (a) providing in an evaporating crystallizer an aqueous mother liquor containing dissolved allulose; (b) maintaining, preferably until the end of crystallization, the aqueous mother liquor within the evaporating crystallizer at a crystallization temperature within the range of from 20 to 80°C; (c) maintaining, preferably until the end of crystallization, the vapor phase above the aqueous mother liquor within the evaporating crystallizer at a crystallization pressure within the range of from 40 to 500 mbar; and (d) inducing crystallization of allulose from the aqueous mother liquor at the crystallization temperature and at the crystallization pressure in a supersaturated state thereby obtaining the solid allulose material as a precipitate and a supernatant.
